1. GENERAL INFORMATION
PERSONNEL – DEFINITIONS AND ATTRIBUTES
The user should ensure that the person carrying out any task has such appropriate practical and theoretical
knowledge and experience of the equipment in question as will enable them to perform the task safely and
recognise any hazards associated with the work. They should be physically and mentally fit and trained in Safe
Hoisting Practices and the use of safety and access equipment. No work of any kind should be authorised to
persons who are under the influence of narcotics, alcohol or medication, which affects their ability to react.
Hazards can only be minimised by care, common sense and being alert at all times.
Various personnel can be involved in the lifting operation, installation and inspection and maintenance of the
equipment, supervisors, coordinators, operators, slingers, signallers, erectors and maintenance personnel. The
duties of these personnel and their minimum attributes are defined in BS 7121‐1:2006. Also, ISO 15513 gives
competency requirements for crane drivers (operators), slingers, signallers and assessors. In the text of this
manual the following definitions apply:‐
User – person or organisation that has control of both the lifting operation and the hoist operator and has
the responsibility to ensure the equipment is properly maintained and thoroughly examined by a
competent person.
Competent Person – person who has such practical and theoretical knowledge and mechanical and / or
electrical experience of the hoist and the equipment used in the lifting operation which enables them to
detect defects or weaknesses and to assess their importance in relation to the safety and continued use of
the lifting equipment.
Operator ‐ trained person who is operating the hoist for the purpose of positioning loads.
Some maintenance procedures are more effectively performed with power to the equipment. If work has
to be carried out on live parts, an additional competent person must be available to actuate the power
isolating switch in an emergency. Ensure that there is an effective manner of communication between
personnel.
personnel in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions following the appropriate health and safety
regulations and procedures.
The following should be considered when choosing the most appropriate type of maintenance access
equipment.
• Floor space available for the access equipment.
• Working height above floor level.
• Number of personnel who require access at high level.
• Total weight of any parts to be removed / replaced.
PERIODIC TESTS
The hoist must be inspected by a competent person at least once a year. The competent person may consider
shorter periods to be more appropriate depending on the duty of the hoist. Record the results of the test in
the hoist log book.

2. ASSEMBLY / INSTALLATION
Prior to installing the hoist, ALWAYS ensure that the structure it is being suspended from is capable of carrying
the hoist AND its load, and has been certified to do so. Also make sure that the power supply being used
complies with that specified for the hoist.
1: Position the chain collector in such a way that the hole corresponds with that
of the hoist body; the bevel must be facing backwards.
4: Insert the screws and secure with the nut to the relevant hole at the edge of
the central body.
Once the hoist is fully assembled to the supporting structure, it is considered by the current legislation as a new
machine and is, therefore, subject to testing of the entire system.
Smear the chain with industrial oil or gear oil in order to prevent wear of the chain itself and the load sprocket.
Ensure that the hoist is compatible to the line voltage of the installation and if necessary perform the relevant
modifications to adapt it. Connect the feed line to the hoist, to the R,S and T terminals of the printed circuit.
The hoists’ power feed supply should be provided from a suitable fused and isolatable supply. Minimum cable
size 1.5mm. The isolator should be mounted in an accessible place as close to the hoist as possible. The fourth
wire, with a yellow‐green insulating sheath, must be connected to the earth terminal situated inside the
electrical board and then connected to the earth system.
WARNING: If used with an incorrect voltage, the hoist can suffer serious damage. Ensure that the line voltage
corresponds to that required, (voltage indicated on the hoist plate.)

WARNING: The trolley as sold is already set to the voltage requested by the user. ANY change in voltage
MUST be performed by qualified personnel.
1. Remove the cover by unscrewing the socket head screws and removing them from their seats.
2. For 380 V three‐phase line voltage, connect together the three wires from the motor into a terminal
(motor with star connection.)
3. For 220 V three‐phase line voltage connect the three wires from the motor to the terminals 2.4 and 6
(motor with triangular connection).
3. OPERATIONAL TEST
This test should be made before use of the hoist and at the start of every day.
LIFTING TEST
Switch on the power to the hoist with the isolator and then turn the emergency stop button in order to release
it. Press the UP or DOWN button on the pendant to check the direction of the hoist. If Check each speed. The
movement of the chain should correspond with what is indicated on the pendant button.
TRAVEL TEST
Press the button LEFT or RIGHT on the pendant to verify that the trolley runs in the correct direction.
CLUTCH TEST
Keep the button UP on the pendant pressed to make the hook climb to the hoist body where it stops. Repeat
the same manoeuvre pressing the button DOWN to lower the hook until the chain stop comes up against the
hoist body. In both cases check that the hoist motor continues to run and the clutch slips.
BRAKE TEST
With a small load of 20kg operate the DOWN and UP several times to check the correct operation of the hoist
and brake. When either button is released the hoist should stop and the load held without slipping.
Repeat the above with the SWL of the hoist, again the load should be held without slipping.
Press one of the buttons UP / DOWN and then the EMERGENCY STOP button to check that the hoist stops and
remains stopped until it is released. Repeat with the other UP / DOWN button.
WARNING: If any buttons are non‐functional the hoist should not be used, and Street Crane Company should
be contacted.
4. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INTENDED USE
The hoist is designed for lifting, moving and lowering loads, up to the rated capacity of the equipment, by means
of a hook or other similar load handling device. The equipment should not be modified or any additions made
without the approval of Street Crane Co Ltd.
• The equipment is not intended for transporting any persons either suspended in a basket from the
hoist.
• The hoist is not intended for pulling loads at an angle and not for towing or dragging loads along the
floor. The hoist is designed for lifting a load in a vertical path only.
• Ensure that the hoist is always operated within its rated capacity (SWL). The weight of any lifting gear
should be taken into account when assessing the load on the hoist. It may also be necessary to allow
for any adhesion between the load and its supports.
WARNING: Overloading can lead to a possible failure of some of the load carrying parts. Overloading the
hoist may start a defect, which could lead to future failure even at less than the rated
capacity.
• Do not use the hoist for pulling loads loose, i.e. pulling components from moulds and always make
necessary allowances for any adhesion between the load and its supports.
• The end of travel limits, (hoist or travel), are not intended to be a regular method of stopping the
motion. They are safety devices and they should be approached with caution.
The following information serves as a guide for safe hoisting practices and an operator adhering to these will
quickly find that he / she is able to work both smoothly and quickly, without prejudicing safety and equipment.
1. Know where the safety, fire and first aid equipment is located and how to use it.
2. Ensure that no one is working on the track or where they could be struck by the hoist.
3. Before using the hoist make a full visual inspection to ascertain that the equipment is in good working
order, paying particular attention to the chain and hook. Refer to Daily pre‐use inspections.
4. Do not use the hoist for anything other than its intended purpose.
5. Ensure the hoist is properly maintained and that all the necessary examination and maintenance records
are up to date.
6. All relevant accident prevention, safe lifting and slinging procedures should be obeyed.
7. Constantly monitor all hoist movements and be ready to activate the emergency stop should any
abnormal circumstances arise. Be especially aware of instances where the hoist may fail to stop when
the push button/joystick is released or if the hoist moves unexpectedly.
8. Always operate the hoist with care and consideration. Care should be taken to avoid the swinging of
loads.
9. Ensure that the SWL data plates are clearly visible to the operator at all times.
10. Centre the hoist over the load before lifting. Do not side pull as this can damage the hoist and endanger
the operator.
11. Do not lift a load unless you can see it is securely slung with “suitable” lifting tackle.
WARNING: Lifting tackle should only be deemed “suitable” if in accordance with LOLER 98.
(Other national regulations may apply).
WARNING: Running into the load at full hoist speed imposes excessive overloads on the hoist and
could result in failure of parts and/or supporting structure.
13. Do not ‘inch’ the hoist unnecessarily. Excessive stopping and starting causes high temperatures in the
motor and brake and may result in overheating or burnout of the component if continued to excess.
14. Do not try and move in the opposite direction until the hoist has come to a complete stop.
WARNING: Do not stand below a suspended load or allow any other personnel to do so.
15. Prior to operating the travel or traverse motion, the operator should make personnel aware of
approaching loads using audible warnings where necessary.
WARNING: Do not move the loads over the heads of other personnel.
16. Do not run the hoist into the travel stops at full speed. Ensure that the rubber buffer is in place and not
damaged.
17. Ensure that adequate clearance is maintained between the load or lifting attachment and the hoist
structure.
18. Ensure that you can see the hook or load clearly at all times or are receiving signals from someone who
can. Ensure that both parties know the full meaning of the hand signals for operating the hoist. See
diagram below for recommended hand signals.
19. Do not continue to travel or traverse once the hoist has come to a stop against the endstops. This will
cause localised damage to the rail or runway beam.
20. Never leave a load suspended in the air unsupervised.
21. Do not park the hoist over fumes, steam or dangerous processes. For outdoor hoists, park in a sheltered
area where possible.
22. Do not leave outdoor hoists unattended for long periods without applying the storm anchors.

4. For long periods and for out‐of‐service conditions, switch the mains isolator to the OFF position.
5. For outdoor hoists, attach the storm anchors.
POWER FAILURE
The appointed person should establish a safe operating procedure in the event of a power failure. If the
appointed person does not have such a procedure the following is recommended: ‐
• Fence off and clear all personnel from the area under the load.
• Follow the appropriate Health and Safety regulations and procedures.
When the electrical supply is restored, re‐establish the hoist power supply, lower the load, then carry out the
daily pre‐use inspections (see section 6).
WARNING: In the event of a malfunction of equipment or unusual occurrences, the operator should
immediately REPORT the fault(s) to the competent person. The hoist should be taken out of
service until the fault(s) have been rectified by the appropriately qualified personnel.
WARNING: Do not use ANY limit switch as a regular method of stopping the motion. They are intended as
emergency devices and are for the safety of personnel.
9. Check the operation of the hoist brake. To do this lift a load clear of the ground and release the
pushbutton. The hook should remain in position with no run‐back.
MONTHLY CHECKS
• Carry out daily check procedure.
• Ensure that the pins of the hoist carrying the trolley are in good condition (are not bent or loose).
• Inspect the trolley plates to ensure that they are not out of shape.
• Measure the pitch of the chain and ensure that the dimensions do not exceed those featured in the
following table. If the dimensions exceed the allowable, the chain should be replaced by a competent
person, paying particular attention to the fit of the new chain on the load sprocket. Using a gauge,
carefully check the measurements indicated below by measuring 5 chain links. Record the results in the
chain inspection log (see page 19).
KEEPING OF RECORDS
Accurate recording of the hoist performance can provide useful information in regulating maintenance
procedures and control of replacement stock. In the hoist maintenance log, record the date and reason for
replacement, each time a component is replaced.

• Ensure that the hook is not deformed. Measure the size of the hook and check that it is not worn.
Replace if otherwise. Permanent deformation measured from the hook opening must never exceed
0.25%, if this occurs replace the hook immediately. Record the results in the load hook inspection log.
WARNING: Only use original Street Crane Crane Company spare parts on the hoist.
It is a statutory requirement that a competent person inspects the hoist at regular intervals.
7. MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The clutch is pre‐set at the factory prior despatch. It may require adjusting after a long period under
severe operating conditions. Any adjustments must be carried out by authorised service personnel. Correct
operation of the slipping clutch can be determined by checking that the hoist raises no more than 1.25 x safe
working load (SWL).
1 Setting of the slipping clutch requires power to the hoist unit to be switched ON. All
work must be carried out with extreme care. Suitable safety precautions should be
made to ensure that other motions are not accidentally activated.
1 Remove four no. socket head cap screws from the hoist body cover (non hoist motor / panel side).
2 Remove hoist body cover and counterbalance.
Clutch Assembly
NOTE: Depending on tools available the locknut and clutch adjusting nuts may be accessible without
removing the electrical panel.
1 Remove adjustment screw cap to the right of the hoist motor to expose clutch adjustment screw.
2 Adjust the slipping clutch tension so that the hoist is able to lift the safe working load (SWL) of the
hoist plus 25%. The clutch should just start to slip at this capacity.
3 Replace the adjustment screw cap.
